No! Really?!? Not property damage! Quick! Call State Farm! I swear, what are they teaching at journalism school these days? This clown could have muffed D-Day:

Allied and German forces clashed along the beaches of Normandy today, snarling traffic, damaging vacation cottages, and killing some people. Also, a woman reported having her hair mussed by a 14" shell from the USS Texas.

This is a military invasion, for chrissakes, not a tornado in a traffic jam.

I watched the news early in the day about the invasion, complete with Russian TV Channel 1 footage of a tank column on the way across the border and Sukhoi Frogfoots winging by. Then, come 6:30 pm, the national news barely mentioned it at all. Much too excited by the Olympics.

And I was left to wonder, as China attempts to show the world they really are a major player, was this Russia's reminder that they still like us all to think of them as a Superpower?

The reason for this is that the American people in general, and the left in particular have somehow gotten the idea that wars can be fought with no one getting hurt, and nothing being damaged except VALID military targets. After of course determining that the military targets actually had hostile intent, that there is no possible way that any attacks will cause collateral damage, and that we are not simply targeting the equipment based on racial or religious profiling, because that would just be wrong. Wrong, I say!

Georgia! The Russians have invaded georgia and all you are worried about is how it is written up in the press. Why hasn't there been a call for arms, why aren't the militias rolling out, where are all of a goshdarned troops Why aren't we counterattacking. How in heck did they make it over here without us seeing them coming. Man I goota go get the graba nd go kits, I am heading to the hills to regroup and plan the counterstrikes.
